In a practical application of time calculation, two friends, Tya and Jade, embark on a cookie-baking adventure. They start their culinary activity at 14:00 and wrap up at 16:25. To determine the total time spent on baking, a timeline is drawn, marking the hours and minutes from the start to the finish. By adding up the hours and minutes, it becomes clear that the duo spent a total of 2 hours and 25 minutes in the kitchen, meticulously crafting their cookies.

Another scenario involves Han, who eagerly anticipates the arrival of his uncle. It's the 1st of January 2018, and his uncle is expected to visit on the 23rd of March. To figure out how many days Han has to wait, a timeline is sketched out, spanning from the start of January to the end of March. The timeline reveals that January has 31 days, February has 28 days, and there are 23 days to count in March up until the uncle's arrival. A simple addition of these days – 31 plus 28 plus 23 – leads to a total of 82 days. Therefore, Han can expect to greet his uncle in 82 days' time.
